I'm sad that Kirby's heirs don't get something for his monumental contribution to comics...

But I AM glad to see in the CAPTAIN AMERICA credits: "Based on the Marvel comic book by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby"...

Does anyone think that credit would exist without Joe Simon's (successful) lawsuits against the company?
No.  Kudos to Joe Simon for being willing to hang in there.  And to both Simon and Kirby for creating the character of Captain America without anyone else's direction.
